This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

When Brent attends the annual party for his fraternity, he usually begins acting rowdy after

just one beer. When he is watching a movie with his girlfriend, however, one beer makes

him feel relaxed. Which MOST likely explains Brent's seemingly discrepant behaviors?

A) expectancy theory

B) alcohol's effects on the GABA system

C) alcohol myopia

D) alcohol's effects on endogenous opiates.

The answer is letter A) expectancy theory.

Explanation:

According to Vroom's expectancy theory, our behaviors result from choices we consciously make. From several alternatives, we choose the one that will minimize pain and maximize pleasure. Notice that Brent is ingesting the same amount of beer in both situations. His behaviors, however, differ greatly because of what he expects from and in each situation. He probably expects to get drunk and have a great time with his friends during the annual party. However, he expects to chill and relax in his girlfriend's company while watching a movie. The behaviors are, thus, a reflection of his expectations.
